HAHA I just found that out the hard way.

Another find that I hate to fight is Rashad Evans. I can beat the living dog shit out of him and he wont go down. He hit me with one punch....KO. RIDICULOUS I say.

what difficulty do you play?

just bumped to expert...more challenging but minus a few exceptions the comp just isnt that hard....I NEED to ge on Live again....when I do my gamertag is MyLuvMuScLe (was great for Halo i.e you got beat down by myluvmuscle)

Im becoming a submission master

major counter: hit your opponent during the beginning of their attackminor counter: hit your opponent immediately after their attackcatch counter to clinch: RS up (high) with the right timingcatch counter to takedown: RS down (low) with the right timing

TRANSITIONsweeping rotations on the RS initiate transitions on the ground. i.e. a "Street Fighter fireball motion" of down, down-left, left. minor transitions: start by pressing up or down and sweep clockwise or counter-clockwise on RSexample: down, down-left, leftmajor transitions start by pressing at a 45-degree angle (down-left or down-right for example) and sweep clockwise or counter-clockwise on RSexample: down-left, down, down-right, right, up-rightminor transition = less position gain, less chance of reversalmajor transition = more position gain, more chance of reversal transition block: hold RS opposite (forwards or back)attempt reversal: flick RS opposite (forwards or back)stand out of advantage ground position (stand out of someone's guard): press in on LSescape clinch: strike your way out repeatedly, or move out with the left stickescape from your back with opponent standing: RS up, down or backstand up then attempt a takedown: hold LT + RS forward

SUBMISSIONpress in right stick with the right timing on a counter-strike to attempt a submissionthen beat any button or rotate RS to finish the submissionbrute force escape a sub attempt: throw strikes in rapid successiontechnical escape a sub attempt: rotate RS clockwise

Legend:

LS = Left StickLT = Left Trigger (L2 on a PS3)LB = Left Bumper (above the trigger, L1 on a PS3)RS = Right StickRT = Right Trigger (L2 on a PS3)RB = Right Bumper (above the trigger, L1 on a PS3)

You may be wondering

How do you do slams from the ground. Like when you are controlling a guy on the ground on his back after you stuffed his TD's....how do you pick him up and pile drive him into the mat.

How do you pick a guy up when you are in his guard and slam him back down, Rampage style?

How do you initiate rubber guard from the bottom?

How do you posture up when you are on top....not just to your knees but to your feet, GSP style?

1. to piledrive, you have to be a wrestler, time your sprawl so you are still on his back, and LB and major transition (5 to 12)

2. to pick them up and slam then on their back and posture up from their gaurd, LB and a major transition (11 to 6)

3. Rubber gaurd is LB and major transition (11 to 6)

4.See number 2, you posture up to your feet as a result of the slam.

I know how to play, havnt bumped to expert though, I find the challenge just right for me at veteran, the easy guys are....well easy and the higher ranked fighters give me appropriate trouble, I've got fighters maxed out and retired in every division but lightweight (working on it) and the game is still so fun! id think id be sick of it by now I did just get a new 42" 1080p LCD though so that helps too......so pretty

they will replace it as long as its been under 3 years since you last replaced it i think, on a side note the new game "Red Faction Guerrilla" is the coolest thing ive played in a long time, highly recommended

Ya, a buddy of mine said they are fixing the red ring even if you don't have a receipt (I wish I knew that before I tried to fix it myself and failed).

i guess i just got lucky, i bought one the day they released and it just kicked the bucket about 6 months ago, sent it in and its been perfect since ive heard tales of people going through like 5 in that same time frame

My 360 arrived back on my doorstep today. And so I finally had a chance to play a couple of games. Played Prototype and Red Faction. Prototype...the concept was cool...quickly got boring. Red Faction though was the shiznit. If you love blowing shit up and bashing people over the head with a sledge hammer, then get this game.

I have both of those too, both got equally boring for me after a bit (but RF has cool multi-player), each one has super repetitive missions but both really are a blast to just jump on and wreak havoc for a bit. for me Prototype was a bit better due to the character upgrades, awesome movement and ULTRA violence.all ive been playing lately is Blue Dragon though, I saw that it was down to like 12 bucks and decided to give it a try, IMO it is actually a great game if you are in to JRPG's (especially for the price)
